Too many open printer handles. |
Application Verifier break message
Too many open printer handles.
Probable cause
Too many printer handles were opened. There might be a resource leak.
The following sample debugger output shows the AppVerifier message that is displayed when 0x000003EB (1003) printer handles have been opened. In this case, AppVerifier would show this warning three times, one for each handle that is opened after 1,000 handles were open.

======================================= VERIFIER STOP 0000A00B : pid 0xC8C: Too many open printer handles 000003EB : Number of currently open printer handles. 00000000 : Not used. 00000000 : Not used. 00000000 : Not used. ======================================= |
Troubleshooting Steps
This stop is a warning. It might be normal to have more than 1,000 open printer handles if the print server has many printers or it might be the result of a resource leak. A resource leak could be caused by not calling ClosePrinter when necessary. If you think that the number of open printer handles is too high for the number of printers then review the source code to determine if the printer handles are being opened and closed correctly.
